I have a question to your members and was wondering if you could askit for me. I was an animation student, but now am an englishteacher, so i don't think i would be that regular of a poster, somembership might not work out for me.

When i was a child, up here in Canada, i watched a animated film overthe christmas holiday. I do not remember much about the film but ithas haunted me since. For some reason i think it was a french film,but i am not sure. All i remember is that it was about a coupletrying to escape a large, seemingly deserted city. The streets seemedempty, and the forces against sent something (perhaps a mechanicaldevice?) to prevent their escape. This would have been in the 1980'ssometime.

I was wondering if you could throw this esoteric bit of trivia to themembers of your community as it i believe it is the kind of 'red meat'that the lovers of an artform like to chew on. thanks.

Sounds like it could possibly be Paul Grimmault's LE ROI ET L'OISEAU (THE KING AND THE BIRD) .
